Jesus said that the kingdom
of heaven is like a buried treasure or a pearl of great price. That leaves us asking
just what he meant by the kingdom of heaven.
I might be wrong, by I take
his kingdom of heaven to be a combination of the three parables Jesus gave us in Chapter Twenty-Five of Matthew’s
Gospel.
In his first of those parables
Jesus praised the man who used his five talents to earn five more. In his
second parable Jesus congratulated the man who had oil in his lamp when the
groom came. In his third parable Jesus called blessed the man who looked out for
the needs of his fellow men.
